An Email to Chief Superintendent Ruth Purdie with regards North Wales Police pledge to communities

Dear Chief Superintendent,

It is early morning in Chester Rd, Penyffordd, the birds are singing, we are in the height of summer. We are also into our daily rat run with vehicles hurling through the village, HGV's accelerating up the hill well before the speed limit taking a short cut and not using our bypass.

On the North Wales Police website it says " it’s very important for us to respond to the day-to-day frustrations of citizens wanting to make their locality a nicer place. "

As you are aware there are over 1000 speeding vehicles through Penyffordd each day. I have complained about this issue for over 2 years. North Wales Police's response to be kind is very lack lustre.

Under the Police Pledge I and residents in Chester Rd expect you to apply speeding traffic law and to act in the interests of Chester Rd by proposing an HGV ban to Flintshire County Council as we have a purpose made bypass.

I expect a timely reply to my and other Chester Rd residents concerns over our village environment under your Policing Pledge obligations.

Yours sincerely

Colin Hughes
